An architecture for distributed ledger-based M2M auditing for Electric Autonomous Vehicles
Electric Autonomous Vehicles (EAVs) promise to be an effective way to solve
transportation issues such as accidents, emissions and congestion, and aim at
establishing the foundation of Machine-to-Machine (M2M) economy. For this to be
possible, the market should be able to offer appropriate charging services
without involving humans. The state-of-the-art mechanisms of charging and
billing do not meet this requirement, and often impose service fees for value
transactions that may also endanger users and their location privacy. This
paper aims at filling this gap and envisions a new charging architecture and a
billing framework for EAV which would enable M2M transactions via the use of
Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT)
A Distributed Ledger Based Infrastructure for Smart Transportation System and Social Good
This paper presents a system architecture to promote the development of smart
transportation systems. Thanks to the use of distributed ledgers and related
technologies, it is possible to create, store and share data generated by users
through their sensors, while moving. In particular, IOTA and IPFS are used to
store and certify data (and their related metadata) coming from sensors or by
the users themselves. Ethereum is exploited as the smart contract platform that
coordinates the data sharing and provisioning. The necessary privacy guarantees
are provided by the usage of Zero Knowledge Proof. We show some results
obtained from some use case scenarios that demonstrate how such technologies
can be integrated to build novel smart services and to promote social good in
user mobility.Comment: Proceedings of the IEEE Consumer Communications and Networking
